Yo Czar, whats going on here? I'm pretty sure I've never once seen either of these characters and where Theu's cs 

Character I made back when BT was around ;-;

With him gone it just wasn't going to be the same.

And Theu's CS must have never survived the forum transfer, but 100% has to be remade XS

Chop chop then!

Oh and Magalos of the Hundred Tongues might never see the light of day, he doesn't work that well post-retcons. Shame because the artwork I had commissioned was lit

I hear there’s a good illustration out there that could go well with it.

Funny you mention this bit, because I discovered tonight that the old forum isn’t truly gone and I retrieved the Ubbe origins posts. They’re are rough and will be rewritten, but they survived and are coming soon

I’ve read them before but I’ll definitely be checking out the "remaster".

Just did a quick read through, and brother… perhaps it’s a good thing they didn’t get brought over initially

Hey, the rest of us wrote chapter 1 and that shit’s still available to the public eye. No judgements here.

It'd be awfully weird for armored Theu to make an appearance before he makes an appearance in writing

The Darkened Archer disagrees

[TheCzarsHussar]

I'm not entirely satisfied with the post, but I'm trying to push out the stuff that's holding the timeline back 

[Centurion]

Part 1 of Ubbe’s origins post remastered is up. I included the original in a spoiler tab so you guys could see it as well

[Centurion]

CZARRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[TheCzarsHussar]

READING NOW, slut

@Centurion That was more poignant and sad than I expected.

I came into this thinking Ubbe was going to be gnawing on some elf bones, ass naked in sallow skin pelts. Instead I had a glimpse at a surprisingly normal young Nord. Or more accurately a young man considering he's practically in adulthood as far as the culture is concerned.

I take it Ubbe's pappy is either rotting in an Imperial cell, head on a spike, or buried in a mass grave? There's a sense of finality in it, that or his father is pulling a red herring and is actually gearing up with the Legion. Much to the disdain of his wife's side of the family. Allinall, good setup Centurion!

I'm curious if the narrative will continue unbroken from this until when we first saw him chronologically.

[TheCzarsHussar]

Oh and the home burning scene was sad to read, my family once had beautiful homes from before my time. Every one of them was either sold, or fell into disrepair and then sold. This reminded me of my great grandmother's home in East Point, was once a grand almost-mansion but was a rotting cat-piss smelling hovel by the time it was sold.

[TheCzarsHussar]

The thoughts that come to mind are "What's the history of Ubbe's home? How'd they come to build it, how many generations lived here?"

I’m following the same storyline-ish that I did in the in original 2 origin posts for him, just writing them… better… lol. So the next post is going to include a small time jump and so further details into Ubbe’s father. Just like the original versions. The next one those is really going to shine with my vastly improved writing and i can’t wait to get started on it

Centurion 2023:

"The warm winds of volcanic tundra rapidly cooled as it blew up the slopes of the Velothi Mountains, stinging Ubbe’s neck with each burst as it whipped past his head. He sat high on a rocky perch, silently watching the roads below as Magnus began to descend behind the mountain pikes to west, turning the clouds a vibrant orange that rested against the growing darkness."

Centurion 2016:

"Ubbe sat his fat ass sat on a log."

@Centurion 

I dig the "remastered" Origin post. I joked before, but only because it is genuinely comical how much better this version is than the one you wrote way back when. It’s so much more reserved and trusts the reader to understand what’s happening without just spelling everything out. And just the little changes you made in how you described or presented things reads way more smoothly than before. Huge improvement. 

Makes me really glad you were able to salvage the old ones after all these years, else we never would’ve gotten to read them in all your modern experienced glory.

I definitely had those rose tinted glasses on when thinking about them all this time, then I found them and reread them and almost choked lmao. Reading the originals was like watching the 2003 Clone Wars series

You’re being hard on your young’n self. It wasn’t really so bad. Just nowhere near on the level you are now.
